Determining the inheritance pattern of X-linked recessive disorder:
- It affects males more than females because males carry a single X-chromosome; any recessive mutation on X-chromosome will be expressed.
- Females can be affected if they receive two copies of X-chromosomes with the disease-causing recessive allele from both the parents.
- Approximately one-half of carrier mother’s sons will be affected.
